Chapter 212 - 212 Cherish the Present
212 Cherish the Present
“It doesn’t matter. If you can put up with it, then I can too. That’s not a problem.” In her previous life, Chen Wei’er and He Xun had divorced.
Her mother had also died from an illness. She had no money in her hands. The rest had been gambled away by Nie Suijing.
They didn’t even have a house, so they could only sleep under a bridge.
In the end, she had to take out her last pair of jewelry to exchange for some money.
This time, she was only going to the mountain for an inspection. No matter how difficult the conditions were, she was prepared.
It would be inexcusable for her to avoid it. What kind of hardship had she not experienced in her previous life?
Chen Wei’er would never back down just because the conditions were tough.
She would only face the difficulties head-on!
The more difficult the conditions were, the more she would feel sorry for the children in the mountains, and the more she would be touched by their determination to continue studying.
It was also because of this that she could understand how good her living conditions were now.
Without comparison, one would not be content. She had to constantly remind herself of everything she had now and cherish it.
Happiness was hard to come by, and she absolutely could not squander it.
“Madam He, you’re a woman after all.” Chief Wu didn’t know how else he could persuade her.
Chen Wei’er raised the corners of her lips, but there was no trace of a smile in her eyes.
“I’m a woman, but Chief Wu, I’d like to ask, what makes you think that women can’t do it too? You men can stand the tough conditions, but women can’t? Why can’t women do things that men can? There are too many women in this world who are suffering, and you men might not be able to bear their suffering.”
“I… That’s not what meant.” Once again, Chief Wu started to break out in a cold sweat. He could tell that this woman was completely different from those gentle and virtuous women!
“Don’t worry, Madam He. We’ll inform you when the time comes!”
Chen Wei’er lifted the hoods of her eyes—indicating that she understood.
After the meeting, Chief Wu wiped his sweat several times, but Chen Wei’er was still calm.
Those who knew the situation would think that they were discussing a collaboration. Those who didn’t would think that they were negotiating, and Chief Wu was the one being scrutinized.
Chen Wei’er carried her bag and walked out of the Heaven Blessed Charity Center with Xu Bai.
In the next second, she started to complain, “So what if I’m a woman? I can’t even do something without being discriminated! He really thinks he’s so great, but in the end, he still has to bow and obey a woman.”
She respected Feng Lichen greatly, and she also admired his persistence in doing charity and public welfare for decades. But what kind of people were his men? What era was it now? Did they still think that men were born nobler than women?
“Don’t be angry, Madam He. It’s not worth it to deal with that kind of person!” Xu Bai could also see the contempt in Chief Wu’s eyes. It was because she and Chen Wei’er were women.
Attorney Xu was especially angry about this situation. She was a lawyer, and in court, she would always be provoked by the male lawyers with some despicable words.
However, the one who had no professional ethics was the male lawyer. He actually verbally discriminated against a woman in public, but in the end, everyone was laughing at her.
Was it a crime to be a woman?
In many cases, clients had requested to replace female lawyers with male lawyers on the ground that they were not as professional as the latter.
When Xu Bai saw Chen Wei’er suppressing Chief Wu with words today and even smacking his face with her bag, she simply wanted to jump up and applaud!
That man was simply too cowardly!
Why would Heaven Blessed Charity hire such an immoral person? If he dared to cause trouble again, she would definitely kick him out of the foundation!
Chen Wei’er clenched her fist. He had better not anger her again.
“Madam He, he is such a coward. You’re my idol!” Xu Bai sat in the car with Chen Wei’er and hugged her excitedly.
“You were also outstanding when you discussed business with the Legal Department of the Heaven Blessed Charity! You’re so competent with every law. I’m envious of you! You’re really good at your profession.” Chen Wei’er also admired lawyers. They were familiar with the law and could use it as a weapon to protect themselves.
“Speaking of which, Madam He, I feel that the contract was changed by Chief Wu today. There are a few unreasonable terms in it. We have to be careful of this person in the future, in case he tries to do anything,” Xu Bai said sternly.
“I’ll listen to you,” Chen Wei’er could also tell that Chief Wu was not a good person. It was natural to guard against it.
By the time she returned to the studio, it was almost time to get off work, but everyone in the studio was still busy.
As soon as Chen Wei’er stepped inside, she heard someone call her, “Madam He, please wait a moment!”
Chen Wei’er turned around. It was Fu Xi, the assistant in charge of filtering private messages. “What’s wrong?”
“Chief Chen, come and take a look. I’m so angry! This is the first time I’ve met such a person after so many private messages!” Fu Xi pointed at the computer screen, and the little girl’s face turned dark.
